I’ve been working on Unix systems since X10 was in vogue. Before Linus made his first release of Linux. I know what Linux is.

The problem is normies want a single DE with applications. Those flexible DEs will stunt Linux growth on the desktop.

There’s an additional problem: The growth of far-left politics into open source projects. We’d both be banned from contributing to many open source projects because we post here on FR.

OK. Why did you want "linux developers" to be working on desktop environment(s), then? They don't touch the DE.

Also, how do you propose they limit it? You can't stop applications from running.
